The playful artistry of Living Alphabet speaks to the heart of childhood. These lively illustrations, so filled with color, movement, eloquent gesture, and invention, conjure up long- forgotten memo- ries of books from a time when pictures were still alive and spoke with power. Each page is a magical door opening to the bright realm where stories are enacted, a realm of wonders accessible to children, artists, and all those in whom the light of imagina- tion shines.
